That is why education in Computing has to find its adequate place in the curricula of the school all over the world. The paper proposes a methodology for development of school curricula in Computing. The main feature of this methodology is that it is extracted from the guidance for creating university curricula in Computing of the most respected professional associations in the domain – ACM and the CS section of IEEE. As a sample that illustrates application of the methodology, a part of a specific Curriculum is created.
